If you travel to or from Kidepo Valley NP, this place is worth a detour. Not specific about the lodge itself, but Theo and his colleagues really offer a special program to get to know the area and the Karamojo people.
We only made 1 Mt Moroto Nature Walk (unfortunately we did not have more time) which became one of the highlights of our 3 week roadtrip through Uganda. Ireen was a good guide and because she is Karamojo herself (and a upcoming journalist), she was really able to give us some insights in behaviour and way of living of this tribe. The walk itself is hot, so leave early and take enough water. And take more time to do a more extended trip.
About sleeping: we were travelling with a 4WD with rooftoptent and I have to be honest, Theo does not offer a real campsite yet (Campsite is opening from 17 June 2019). There are facilities and you can park your car in the garden within the fence. He told us he is busy preparing another spot in town for campers and looking at his safari tents that will without a doubt become a wonderful place.
The food is good, beer is cold and the people are more than lovely!

Memorable Tour in Karamoja with Kara-Tunga, Karamoja Tours – We enjoyed five memorable days in the Karamoja region in early October and highly recommend the services of Kara-Tunga Arts and Tours in Moroto. Theo, of Kara-Tunga, helped us organize our diverse itinerary before we travelled to Uganda.
Uganda Cultural Experience with Nomadic Warriors of Karamoja – Writing a review for Kara-Tunga, Karamoja Tours is a hard task. The days I spent with this crew fill dozens of pages in my diary but I try to keep this short and sum it all up.
Last week with we where taken on a field study tour to the Karamoja region. I have been to this region so many times but this visit was a unique one and a great eye opener.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Tour of Karamoja 2023. It was an experience to treasure! I love it, but much more so after I had finished the Southern Circuit. It was tough. I really like the tour for the following reasons:
